Super Sunday left Sky Sports salivating after both Manchester clubs completed the double over their north London counterparts to end the gameweek. With the FA Cup next weekend, we’ve a nine day wait until the next lot of fixtures but, for just now, it’s time to analyse the key statistics from our Members area and make a stab at the destination of the Fantasy Premier League bonus points…
Good old ACON. Naive defending & horrendous, career threatening tackles.
Open ControlsSenegal lost didn't they?
Happy fricking DAYS! 🙂Open Controls...Ba...is...coming back?! 😀 😀 😀 😀
Open Controls* Demba x2 DOUBLEDEMBA!!!!!!
Open Controls
You mean Senegal are out?
Open ControlsNo, its like the World Cup or Euro's - a group stage first then knock out. They just lost their opener 2-1 against Zambia.
Open Controls
Tony Valencia over Nani GW18 - 45% Inspiration 55% dumb luck. Lovely transfer though.
Anyone considering Adebayor (c) against Wigan? You Adebayor sellers worried?Open ControlsJust as Valencia being more consistent than Nani is a pattern, I'd say Ade scoring so little is a pattern... he's there to hold the ball up and create opportunities for the galaxy of mids behind him, not primarily to score. Defoe took his chance well today, but took almost no part in Spurs attacks and they had few chances.
Open ControlsIt was a lot more than 45% inspiration, we both had excellent statistics that backed up our decisions
Open Controlsi've kept him, just for this week. not sure of captaining tho, could be compounding an already bad decision.
Open Controls
Ba only 10% ownership now, differential time!!
Open Controlsdifferential in that clever people dont have him cos he's otherwise engaged!
Open Controls
anyone considering Bent?
Open ControlsFakin Flaccooooo!! Why can't the Ravens get a decent QB?! Luckily, their defense will stop the Pats at a field goal...maybe less, hopefully...
Open Controls
Is 11.1M too much for a player who isn't producing points regularly
(Aguero)?
Anyone care to discuss?Open ControlsMy reasoning? 1) He's on City 2) Mancini loves him 3) He's a starter 4) He's class 5) I have a man crush on him 6) Who else am I going to get?! 😉
Open Controlsi am convinced to get him cos of 5
Open ControlsSame
Open Controls
That's why I have him actually (who else...)
The answer now could be Demba Ba though!Open ControlsJust found out Senegal are not OUT, they've just lost one of their matches... *sigh*...
Open Controls
Fixtures come into play.
If Liverpool go through in Carling, he's a good 4 game choice.Open ControlsGt a great run coming. Like they had at the start of the season. Expect things to come!. And can that little fookan irish prick get off motd2?
Open Controls
Really pleased I didn't wildcard for this GW. Did much better than I thought I would (I was expecting around 30 points and got 50) and I have a helluva team for this coming gameweek. Sometimes patience is the best option.
Definitely getting rid of bloody Drenthe, what a fecker he's been. Like Kolarov last season I really wanted him to do well, and he SHOULD have done well being such an explosive player, but he's way too risky to keep.Open ControlsWe were expecting too much from him though. Serial trouble maker in a team that don't score many. I mean it was bad luck too, but he IS NOT as good as he's made out to be. Compared to other lazy talented luxurious trouble makers like Ben Arfa for example!
Open ControlsI have them both, waaaaay too stressful having them! HBA got a lovely haul this week though so no complaints. Cant see me keeping him for the wildcard side though.
Open Controls
Ditto - I 'sacrificed' this GW to get 10 days of WCing for the coming one. Expected an awful rank but I didn't just survive but might have a small chance of a greenie. Drenthe is already gone.
Open ControlsSame here, who are you replacing him with? It's only a one week punt before i WC so i am looking at Ben Arfa or Oxlade. Oxlade would be straight in but i am fairly certain Arsene will play him in the FA Cup match and bench him against Bolton.
Open ControlsDunno, I dont really 'need' someone for next GW as my lineup would be along the lines of
_________Friedel (WIG)________
Hangeland (WBA)_Enrique (wol)_Evans (STO)
HBA (bla)__Murphy (WBA)__Valencia (STO)__Bale (WIG)
__Adebayor (WIG)___RVP (bol)___Rooney (STO)
But will see if I can squeeze Sess or someone in instead.Open ControlsLooks strong enough to me, nice to see someone else has held on to Ade. I think i will captain him this week.
I need a replacement for either Drenthe or Baines.Open ControlsDempsey? Murphy? (he's been great for me) Im tempted by the Ox if he looks to be a regular.
Open ControlsYeah looked at Murphy, can't afford him though, 5.9 is my limit without taking a hit. It's just a one week punt before i WC, players i am considering are, Ben Arfa, Oxlade, Buzsaky, Ireland.
Open ControlsAll punts really. Anyone could be potentially great (or otherwise). Draw them out of a hat 😉
Open Controls
intercreption ravens - amazing
Open Controls2moro mornin bout 9am...
Open ControlsTomorrow, after FPL towers have dragged themselves out of bed, had a full english breakfast, checked their facebook, booked flights to Mauritious, battled out a couple of matches on fifa and planned their tv schedule for the week.
Open ControlsAfter paying 5 dollar
Open Controls
Interception to counter the interception!
Open ControlsWhen Senegal are knocked out.
Open ControlsDidn't they just get knocked out?
Open ControlsThey lost one match in the group stage, safe to say that is not the end of Senegal
Open ControlsAw shite, cheers guys. Good luck to Senegal then... (but not really) 😉
Open Controls
Should still advance to the knockouts with the quality they have. Second in their group is enough.
Open Controls
About 11.30 tonight. Hopefully not pissed and puking on the kitchen floor again. We don't like that.
Open Controls4Vets, I lol'd. This is the last time I'm replying to your comments, I just find them entertaining and I agree with them. Thought you should know... 😉
Open ControlsWhy thank you. It does mean you're a total idiot but... hey... there's worst things in life 😉
Open Controls
senegal's next game on 25 jan will determine their fate - they lost the opener and are next playing against the other team who won thier first game in that group. So if they lose it, they're out.
Open Controls
Will Rooney play against Stoke do u think? He looked a bit injured today.
Open Controlsplus he got liverpool away 2 days prior to wigan game so maybe rested
Open Controls
Krul | Mignolet
Simpson | Caulker | Kompany | Kaboul | Evans
Bale | Sess | Mclean | Barfa | Silva
Bellamy | RVP | Aguero
-Good team for long term ? this is a WC team btwOpen ControlsNice work Plymouth, 1 - 1 with Crawley Town out of the relegation zone - ya boo sucks Premier League!
Open Controlslol didnt that match happen yesterday?
Open Controls
New team after the Abysmal Torres (c) Failure ony my part:
-----------------Schwarzer----------------------
------Richards-------G Cahill-----Santon------
------Valencia------Sess------Silva----Bale----
------------Rooney-----RVP---Bent-----------
Sorenson,Mcclean, Kelly, Caulker.Open ControlsCahill questionable choice
Open ControlsTo think that just a few days ago you wouldn't stop posting about how Torres was going to get a hat trick 😉
Open ControlsThe funny thing is this is the 3rd time ive got him in. Im an idiot. I guess having Torres C two years ago raked me in a f load and im still haveing some nostalgic residue froma few years back.
Open Controls
Unless he moves Luiz to right back (which he needs to do) I'm not sure Cahill will start regularly.
Open ControlsDisagree with this. I reckon Cahill is nailed on and Luiz out as of gw23. I haven't got either but am watching.
Open Controls
Disagree guys. AVB mentioed Cahill didnt play because of the need to "learn the ropes" and he only trained 3 days. So next week he should be in.
Open Controls
What price do you reckon Papiss Demba Cisse will be?
Open ControlsNo idea, but I think he'll steal a share of Demba Ba's points rather than help increase them unfortunately.
Open Controls+1 Ba could do a Timmy Cahill on us too
I think I'm going to be 1 week late than too early regarding his comebackOpen Controls
I expect 7m.
Open Controls7m, like Ruiz
Open Controls7m
Open Controls
Nani has to finally bite the bullet who to replace him with Valencia or Sess
Open ControlsSess sir alex rotates too much (and I don't mean his drinkin wrist)
Open Controls
My #2 Team on a WC
Vorm/Krul
Richards/Assou-Ekotto/Simpson/Caulker/Shotton
Silva/Valencia/Bale/Dempsey/Sessegnon
Van Persie/Aguero/HelgusonOpen ControlsHas the over all rank changed yet?. is the rank showing now correct?
Odd that my rank stayed exactly the same from this morning.Open Controlsso fa cup at the weekend and the fpl games following a day or so after makes me hold off on transfers
could there be rotation? especially with united v lpool in the cup at anfield and then an easier game v wigan at home 2 days later?
what about the likes of dempsey and sess, will they play in the cup and then play a few days later?Open Controlsi love david silva, really think i have a massive man crush
Open Controlsis it his lovely hair?
Open ControlsAll hail the man crushes (Aguapo... 😉 )
Open ControlsIf I were to swing that way Id be for Ricky Rubio
Open Controls
Flacco - Gimp
Open ControlsOk I think my WC team is pretty much done, just have to decide on the third striker.
Lindy/Krul
Kompany/Evans/Simpson/Verm/BAE
Demps/Sess/Silva/Val/Bale
RVP/Zamora/Morison or Helguson
Would love to go without Zamora gw24 out transfer, but I see a lot of potential here and given the gw23 outcome I could even keep Bobby and sell Dempsey for Ox instead.Open ControlsNot sure with BAE.
Spurs games aint great.Open Controls
Gutsy call by Baltimore doesn't pay off...
Open ControlsI'm torn man....
Open Controls
im wildcarding so hoping to catch some .2m risers. who will they be? already brought it dempsey and sess and they both went up last night. who else could go up .2m?
Open ControlsSo bringing in Skrtel and doubling up on the Liverpool defence just for a week or two before bringing Komp back was a massive fail. A total of one point from my back 4 today was also a pretty awful return (1+1+0-1)
And I was so close to captaining Dempsey this week, before bottling it in favour of RVP. I mean he got a goal, but I should've just gone for it. Ah well, who expects a 17 point week?
I've got to be happy with 54 points judging by the average score though, almost all the points from midfield though, no one else performing.
Didn't watch the games today, this was the wrong Super Sunday to miss out on, Bale's was a screamer, just seen it on MOTD.Open ControlsRepost:
Vorm
Skrtel, Senderos, Skrtel
Bale, McClean, Sess, Valencia, Dempsey
Rvp(c), Rooney
Vorm, Kelly, Torres, Shotton
My questions are
1) Should i play kelly instead of skrtel and
2) Should i sell torres this week or just leave on bench as i'm happy with starting 11Open Controls
